MAY 20TH, 1865 Sailing steadily northward, the CSS Shenandoah sighted the Kuriles "covered with snow."
MAY 21ST, 1865: The CSS Shenandoah entered the Sea of Okhotsk "and ran along the coast of Kamchatka under sail. There is a strong current along the Pacific side of these islands setting to the N.E. which clings to the eastern shore of the Arctic Ocean, and how much further northward man knoweth not."
